Elaborate?

I'm not really aware of the story behind this artist, I've seen his art here and there, but haven't seen or heard anything about him being a Nazi.

His abouts page seems to have some comments about that as well: https://stonetoss.com/about/

When you read his comics it's very apparent he's a white supremacist. Any single comic it's not clear (well maybe one) but the sentiment over time is very clear.

(The one that's clear iirc was his "retirement" comic, iirc he portrayed himself as the Terminator at the end of T2 being lowered into the molten steel. Instead of the thumbs up it was a Nazi salute.)

Yeah I previously only saw a few of his comics on the occasional /r/comics post, so didn't really catch the overall theme.

@Odusei@lemmy.world linked more info on it. Today I learned.

I mean, the vast majority of his comics are homophobic and/or transphobic.
